On the other hand, it could be articulated that the female characters in both the novels have proved their mental instabilities, individualisms and rebelliousness have disturbed the lives of others. Moreover, it could be analyzed in the novels that both the author in their social context has explained the dark secrets of the life of individuals.

It is believable that O’Connor and Dagoberto are known as writers of high caliber. The way that they write is out of ordinary and their muses are unparalleled. Each of them offers a great taste of writing to their readers and their stories sound very pleasant to savor. However, this paper will oppose “A Good Man Is Hard to Find” to “Love in L.A.” The focus will be on these themes: symbolism, characters, theme, tone, irony and moral code used in them.

American Literature has always been about men and for men. In this essay, we are going to analyze the women’s role in the book, as inferior and weaker gender.

Firstly, the secondary characters develop the theme by supporting one constant notion in which women are inferior and submissive. The temporal setting is in the late 1940s, after World War I; a time period in which sexism was widely accepted. This prejudice is introduced to the narrator, a young girl, very early on when a businessman commends her for her physical labor, saying “I thought it was only a girl” (4). When

The issue of gender is evident in the 3 novels, ‘Good Work, Secret Seven’ by Enid Blyton, ‘Boy Overboard’ by Morris Gletizman and ‘Divergent’ by Veronica Roth. These books all have an element of gender inequality between men and woman. This analysis will show what the influence is for the break in stereotypes between men and women, using analysis from the books chosen. Gender plays a massive role in the three chosen novels.

Conrad applies an apparently crystal clear literary narrative technique in the tradition of conventional realism, a narrative method that appears deceptively simple. The Secret Agent holds great deal of the social concerns. It is considered supreme masterpieces, it is a brilliantly depicting an ironic narrative of London's seedy and dispossessed underworld of revolutionist and anarchists.

Relationships are hard, especially when the couple does not see eye to eye. Walter Mitty and his wife know exactly what that is like. “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” is a short story written by James Thurber. The setting takes place at Waterberg, Connecticut. The two main characters in this short story are Walter Mitty and his wife, who play significant roles in making this short story come alive despite being very different in many ways. Walter is the protagonist because he is the leading character, while his wife is the antagonist since she causes friction with Walter and his imaginations. Knowing this helps develop the theme of dysfunctional marriages as seen in “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” as it is portrayed through the

The roles of men and women in many societies differ with each performing a duty perceived as defined within their capability. In most cases, the separation of functions is complementary, thus aimed at a holistic running of the system. The men in Trifles and Everyday Use do not feature prominently in the events of the works of art. However, their roles are assumed to be known to the reader since they know the issues of importance to them. The men’s responsibilities seem to complement the women’s ideas which lead to a meaningful ending of both pieces of art. In both works, the role of men is not clearly defined, but given the women’s doubts in the course of their activities, the reader is made to believe that a man’s presence would have resolved a lot of problems.

The Brotherhood functions as a paragon of Marxism, the foundation of modern communism. This is discerned through their aim of “making history,” which is representative of the Marxist principle of the fated transformation of the community. Their accentuation on uniformity, a strong characteristic of the Marxist ideology, is also apparent when Brother Wrestrum pronounced, “ ‘I don’t think we ought to dramatize our differences’ ” (392). The narrator conforms to this ideology for a majority of the novel, and happens upon two others that are present on the streets of Harlem during the early 1930s: black nationalism expressed through Ras the Exhorter and capitalism alluded to Rinehart.

I’ve always been drawn towards philosophical issues. For example, is civilization a part of nature? Well, one answer may come from a recent film that has unsettled me in this topic. In Kingsman: The Secret Service, the character Valentine calls humans a virus and the Earth the host. He concludes that “the host kills the virus, or the virus kills the host.” I disagree with Valentine, and here is why. When most people hear the word nature, they do not think of a thriving metropolitan city. But I do. This is because I think of civilized cities as ecosystems just as rainforests or the Coral Reefs are thought of. Think of it this way: Buildings are like trees; they provide shelter and shade. Sewers are like aquifers; they transport water for everyone.

John Hughes's The Breakfast Club is one of film history’s most iconic and renowned movies and is a cornerstone of 1980’s pop-culture. The Breakfast Club showcases five unique high school students who all unfortunately find themselves imprisoned in an all-day Saturday detention. The students go as following: Claire (a pretty girl), Brian (the nerd), John (the bad boy), Andrew (an athlete), and Allison (the strange, goth girl). These students come from very different backgrounds and social settings which proves to spark many conflicts between them as well as with their supervisor Mr. Vernon. But through this conflict they find similarities between themselves, and after spending nine hours locked up together, they find resolution within themselves and with their new friends. Psychology can explain why this happened as well as what caused other events to occur. This paper will examine four different psychological phenomena: stereotypes, conformity/normative social influence, ingroup versus outgroup/superordinate goals, and the various causes of attraction.

Generally speaking, using Atwood’s three selected novels, the present study has investigated an inner human evolution, a movement which involves an episode of variations from trauma, through suffering and pain, to the knowledge and understanding. Therefore, it can be suggested that the female psychoanalytical development makes the said novels receptive to the feminist-psychological reading. In other words, Atwood’s selected novels have been here analyzed in light of the feminist and psychoanalytic, especially the Freudian, insights. The feminist-psychological insight indeed identifies a recurrent theme in Atwood’s works, which also subsumes different political, moral, and psychoanalytical attitudes.There is a circle to show the close relationship between childhood,

Suppression and violence against women evoke a sickening feeling and are very tense subject matters to discuss. However, these topic discussions are becoming normalized due to feminist and post-feminist dialogue. In previous generations, horrific acts such as abuse and rape were seldom revealed, even between family members. Thus, women in marriages felt trapped even though being married was idolized as the goal for women. The Blind Assassin written by Margaret Atwood brings these topics to light through the story of a woman named Iris Chase Griffen who grew up in the 1930s. The novel is the epitome of a ‘novel within a novel’ with the inner story being a reflection of the romantic relationship between Iris and Alex. The three main plotlines unite under the common theme of female empowerment through self-discovery. Through the use of societal norms, gender roles, and recurring themes, Atwood’s The Blind Assassin emphasizes the importance of feminism and being true to oneself even in an oppressive society.
